How we rank

Most pixels drawn per second first: resolution multiplied by refresh rate, which favours a sharp image and a smooth one equally. A tie goes to the cheaper monitor. Panel type and response time are shown but not scored, because shops state them inconsistently.

Only gaming monitors with a photo, a full spec table and a new, in-stock price read in the last two weeks are considered, so a part that is sold out everywhere drops off until a shop has it again. Refurbished and used stock is left out. Prices change through the day: check the shop before you buy. We may earn commission when you buy through a link on a product page; it never changes the order here.
